Reverse description Central field depicts the Lion of Saint Mark passant within a plain inner circle, rendered in a schematic, stylised manner consistent with the small module of the tornesello denomination. The surrounding Latin legend reads '✠ VEXILIFER • VENECIA4 •', a title denoting Venice as the standard-bearer, with the terminal character '4' serving as an abbreviation mark for the genitive ending. The overall design reflects the standard iconographic programme of Venetian torneselli struck for circulation in the Levantine and Cretan colonial territories.
